Hello, At the end of last week Reuti had already picked up that Oracle gave notification to customers that support for Oracle Grid Engine would transfer to Univa. Today, the transition has become official so allow me to provide more details and background. The Grid Engine engineering team always has been a tightly knit group, even prior to the days of joining Sun in 2000 and then throughout all the years at Sun, the one year at Oracle and now since Jan 2011 at Univa. Our dedication and passion is to evolve the Grid Engine technology and help Grid Engine users to apply Grid Engine successfully in their various use cases. The announcement Univa has made public today will allow us to do that directly for Oracle Grid Engine customers. Most noteworthy it will also remove confusion around Grid Engine as the transition has re-united the full intellectual property including trademarks and all copyright which my team has built over so many years. This encompasses code under the SISSL, the proprietary Oracle code and other assets like documentation, the certification and test suite, diagnostics tools and similar. So this is an exciting day for the Grid Engine technology and also for the Grid Engine team at Univa. If you wish to read more about this please see the press release here: http://www.univa.com/about/news/press_2013/10222013.php Best regards, Fritz --
